‘Parks and Rec’ Cast Reunites at ‘Agatha All Along’ Premiere

Marvel’s Agatha All Along premiere turned into an impromptu Parks and Rec reunion, as Agatha stars Kathryn Hahn and Aubrey Plaza were joined by their former cast members Amy Poehler and Adam Scott on Monday night’s purple carpet.

Parks and Rec starred Poehler as officious city employee Leslie Knope, while Scott played Ben Wyatt, her co-worker and eventual husband. Plaza rose to fame on the show as acerbic office assistant April, and Hahn appeared in 10 episodes as a big-city political consultant whose cutthroat advice often leads to chaos.

Agatha All Along finds Hahn reprising the role of the titular witch that she established in WandaVision, while Plaza will play Rio Vidal, aka the Green Witch, Agatha’s primary adversary. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter at Agatha’s premiere, Hahn said that reuniting with Plaza was “a dream.”

One video posted to social media shows Hahn, Plaza, and Poehler posing for a photo as Scott surreptitiously hops the press line and joins the visibly surprised group.

“We had never had any scenes together in Parks and Rec, I think we passed each other in hallways,” Hahn explained, “but for this to be the first time we really worked together was incredible. I think she’s such an extraordinary actor so to be able to play with her like this was so fun.”

Speaking to The Upcoming on Monday night, Plaza admitted that she was slightly hesitant to take on a role in such a high-profile project. “Kathryn Hahn warned me. She was like, ‘This is no joke. Once you’re on one of these shows there is such a huge fan base and excitement about it.’ It’s insane,” she said. “So, I was a little bit nervous about it, honestly. But I treated it like every other show. I’m just so happy they let me play this character. I can’t spoil it, but what happens, the reveal is pretty amazing. And I think for the fans especially, they’re going to go crazy.”
